How do I change satellite setting on by+solo2 from Astra 19. To Astra 28.

Factory reset is not what it sounds like. It just delete all your settings.

For satellite have you try and update the satellites.xml file? and there is also the option for KU and C bands scan.
Usally you should choose the KU band and not the C band.

I have attached an updated satellites.xml Just unzip the attached file i have attached to find the satellites.xml then you can upload with ftp to folder /etc/tuxbox
The Restart Enigma2 (GUI)

Go to tuner setup and check what band is choosen. If C band then try and change to KU band and see if that helps you to get a look with SatFinder :)

Please post your tuner configuration.
28.2E has a lot of channels on the UK spot beam, meaning that they're difficult to pick up, outside of the UK. Try manually scanning in channels using the Europe Ku beam, like 11082 H 22000 DVB-S
 
And, I add: "red cross" is not indicative of a problem... not every transponders are still in use, even if you are in a country perfectly covered by 28,2... imagine if you are outside UK!

I was going to send you a satellite.xml file, but Thomas anticipated me ;)

Thank you all I will try all your suggestions being old it take longer to work out once I get used to the fact that it’s nothing like my Humax box!!! I have a spare hard drive is of benefit to fit it?

A fitted hard drive will allow you to record, television programs, and download streams, if using Kodi.

Thank you yes I hope to set Kodi up but did I read on one of the Forums Kodi 18 leia was not possible on vu+ solo2 on open Blackhole image?
 
It is available now, I've got it running on my VU+ Duo 2, running the latest Open Black Hole.
Read Evo's post here:
https://www.vuplus-community.net/board/threads/kodi-18-6-with-obh-4-3-020.40528/
"With OBH 4.3.020 Kodi 18.6 is available.

After doing an online update, you may need to remove Kodi manually (menu - plugins - red button to remove plugins - extensions then select Kodi).

After this is done you can reinstall Kodi from the feed's / SpeedUP panel and this will install Kodi 18.6

Kodi 18.6 is available for all boxes that support Kodi (Ultimo4K, Duo4K, Uno4K SE, Uno4K, Solo4K, Zero4K, Duo2, SoloSE, Solo2)."
 
Thanks Mike and Alex after much trial and error I finally got channels tuned and I spent some time studying the various “functions “ it is really a big subject when you get into it now to progress with Kodi!! and now to other things
 
Just a thought if I want to try new image can I flash”over”the present one or do I have to remove it ,if so how do I do that?
 
You make the flash that erases the one in the box and put the new one. If you want to keep the previous one in the box you use OMB.
 
Everything was going along fine then I did a software updated as recommended after reboot a message Tune fail and no tv channels everything else seems ok what has happened and have I done something wrong what do I do now running Open Pli on this vu+solo2 box
